Lowman Law Firm is a team of attorneys working in the Brooksville and Spring Hill area of Tampa Bay. The firm offers free consultations for personal injury cases and will not collect fees until they settle their client's case.

The firm provides legal counsel in several areas of personal injury law and practices primarily in the Hernando, Hillsborough and Pinellas counties of Florida. They also have clients as far out as Citrus, Pasco and Polk. The firm prides itself on its small size and the personal attention they can give to their clients. If you have a personal injury and call the firm, you will talk directly to an attorney - not a legal secretary or paralegal.

Together, Stephanie and Joseph Lowman represent personal injury clients either in court, in mediations or in negotiating a settlement with the liable party or the insurance company. Between the two of them, they have over 20 years of legal experience and know how to get results. They work under a contingency fee - which means they don't collect any money until they successfully win their clients' cases or settlements.
